Inspired By Iceland

Travelling Around Iceland. Inspiration Of Anchor And Crew

From one awesome continent to another. Three highly talented Californian and Texan professional photographers flew out to polar-conditioned Iceland courtesy of ANCHOR & CREW, leaving behind the desert sun, VW campervan road trips, sunflower fields and evenings down by the lake complete with laughter and sunburn. In pursuit of everything beautiful that the mysterious Nordic landmass offers, has the North European island left a mark in their memories forever?

With Tanner Harvey, Jeff Vanags and Greg Merrill sharing a great passion of our own in travelling and visiting amazing places, the trio certainly made the most of their trip; their two week journey was fantastic and it's a shame all the ANCHOR & CREW team couldn't go. As part of our latest adventure, the photography team chose their favourite ANCHOR & CREW accessories to pack for their explorative trip, and with their essentials chosen, were ready to travel. We hope you will agree that Iceland is probably well worth an entry onto your 'bucket list'.

An experience complete with barren tundra and expansive plateaux, volcanic backdrops and a whole host of fjords, glaciers and waterfalls, Iceland's lack of inhabitancy is made up for in natural beauty. With the Atlantic Ocean not too far away, the temperature was a sizzling 8 Degrees Celsius, and it's unpredictable weather was rather predictable in mildness and rain. Such conditions were far from a distraction as Tanner, Jeff and Greg found all the fun; their advice: pack warm (not necessarily photographed).

Icelandic Travel x Style Pack

Travelling on all the winding roads, wandering along many rockfaces, dipping in all the discovered water tubs (warm, supposedly?) and experiencing the ice cold blocks of err, ice, the team's favourite ANCHOR & CREW accessories were continually enjoyed. With much of our inspiration coming from Nordic countries' landscapes, the ANCHOR & CREW aesthetic is casual, smart-casual and smart, all bundled together and achieved in our bold yet minimalist style.

↓ Below, First Row: The Fern Green Dundee Silver and Leather Bracelet matches nature wonderfully, coupled with an even more natural Black Onyx Port Silver and Stone Bracelet. With green becoming increasingly popular and black an ever-present favourite, such a combination is ideal for any occasion. In attempt to replicate this scene, please note that an Icelandic bath tub in the middle of absolutely no-where and long hair are not included in any purchase. Whiskey and/or strong willpower is also encouraged.

↑ Above, Third Row: Exploring the Earth in it's true sense, whether stood firmly on the ground or sat upon a (safe) rock overlooking beautiful waterfalls, the team were able to enjoy endless views that provide all sorts of inspiration to the ANCHOR & CREW design and workshop team.

↑ Above, Fifth Row: With a copious amount of black sand beaches providing continually awe-inspiring views, it was the team's experience of Reykjanes' blue lagoons that complete the documentation of such a fantastic place. As rugged as it is dramatic, the geothermic wonder epitomises everything amazing about Iceland.
